Get to know me,
Dr I-Ferne Tan MBBS MRMed FRANZCOG
Reproductive health is rarely straightforward. It can bring uncertainty, discomfort, and sometimes, deeply personal challenges. My practice is dedicated to helping women and couples feel informed, supported, and confident in the care they receive, no matter where you are in your gynaecological or fertility journey.
Surgical precision, deep knowledge, and innovation are essential in reproductive healthcare. I’m dual-trained in both reproductive surgery and infertility medicine, which allows me to offer a comprehensive range of options — whether you're managing abnormal periods, exploring fertility treatment, or navigating both. But the most important skill is understanding what matters to you. My role is to guide you through the journey with compassion, expertise, and high-quality care.
Beyond my private clinical work, I teach medical students as an honorary lecturer at Macquarie University and mentor gynaecology trainees at Royal North Shore Hospital.
Outside of work, I'm raising two young girls to believe they can achieve anything they set their minds to, whether that’s climbing our next mountain, singing in front of friends, or baking the perfect chocolate chip cookie.
Hello, I’m Dr I-Ferne Tan, Sydney gynaecologist and fertility specialist
I’m passionate about caring for women and couples across all areas of reproductive health, with a special interest in period disorders, pelvic pain, abnormal bleeding, and fertility challenges. I take a thoughtful, patient-led approach — listening closely, explaining clearly, and tailoring evidence-based treatments to fit each person’s needs and goals.
My training includes a Bachelor of Medicine/Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) from Monash University alongside a Master of Reproductive Medicine (MRMed) from the University of New South Wales. In 2018, I was accepted as a Fellow of the Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (FRANZCOG), and subsequently completed fellowship training in advanced laparoscopic and reproductive surgery at the National University Hospital in Singapore.
